My now husband and I signed up for dance classes before our wedding and every part of the experience was fun and seamless. The owner, Alla who coordinates the scheduling was always willing to work with us to accommodate our schedule. Our instructor, Maria is a dream. She is a great teacher - gave us great instruction, always made us feel comfortable, and kept class fun. The studio is top notch. Everyone is friendly and makes you feel welcome. My husband and I enjoyed it so much that we are going to keep our weekly classes as a date night to learn other types of dancing. Highly recommend this studio!

My daughter has been dancing at Studio Dance 4U for about 4 years now- I just went through old yelp pictures and there she is! 3 years old baby basics class! I don't regret spending a single dollar at this studio. I would never pressure my daughter to keep doing something that didn't make her happy, or to compete, and she with was totally happy taking group classes. Then she tried a private- the look on her face! She felt like one of the big kids, making real progress and dancing with nice movements and steps. There was no going back. Each of the teachers that have taught have all been special, and extraordinarily talented. All of them have an awareness of where and how to push... or be gentle. My daughter is a soft sensitive soul and I was afraid a competition-oriented Russian-run studio would be too harsh on her. My fears were quickly quieted down, I found my daughter becoming more confident, more positive, more competitive (she was anti-competitive before), and more assertive. The studio has 2 showcases a year- all the students perform for all the family and friends to the funnest songs and the best costumes. You can also go to as many, or as few, competitions if you are interested! If you're not? Honestly, it's ok. Alla and her teachers will still love you/your kids and be delighted to teach them. My daughter has done 2 competitions so far and she's hooked I ended up also starting lessons this year! There's adult salsa and Latin dance classes in the evenings. You can book privates or even semi-privates if you bring a friend or 2! Alla also rents out her studio space on weekends. I hosted my daughters 6th birthday party there and it was truly awesome. I rented the space and a teacher's time to do fun activities. It's nice to let kids run around inside somewhere safe and play, especially in the Valley heat mid-summer. I decorated the studio how I wanted it and it all came down pretty fast. Come give the studio a try- I hear your first lesson is free

Sam@18 Debut Cotillion Dance   7/16/2021

Alla, Danielle and Magda choreographed our debutante (my niece) Sam's cotillion gracefully, professionally, efficiently and within our price range.... AMAZINGLY in 3 weeks time. The parents of the cotillion dancers were all proud, teary-eyed and overjoyed to see their children perform so well for the grand event. The ecstatic and boisterous crowd demanded for an encore performance. And so they had to dance again! The Father and daughter dance with only about 3 private lessons (secretly, coz we were not allowed to watch them practice ) really caught all of us by surprise with their touching and exciting number. Also, my girls are taking kids ballroom classes there for a month now. My niece also signed up recently to join them every Mondays at 6PM (and Wednesdays at 6:45PM). In the beginning, my 13 y.o. was resentful but now she loves attending the classes.

My husband & I during our wedding dance!

See all

This is a review for parents with kids…read more I am talking about West Valley Dance Academy. I've taken my now close to 4 year old to this studio for the past 6 months, and every day has been great! The school is owned and operated by Lisa Tran. Lisa is a mother and former dancer herself, so she understands both. Lisa teaches many classes herself, and from what I've witnessed, all the kids learn + have a lot of fun. My daughter's main teacher is Kate Newham -- and my daughter loves her! She actually asks before we go if we'll be seeing Miss Kate. Miss Kate is so kind and understanding of all the little kids needs. Many of them, as we all know, just say what's on their mind at any time. Kate always listens, but directs the kiddies back to dance. Also. At no time do the kids just run around and do what they want. Miss Kate has the innate ability to reach them, and keep them dancing. It is a wonderful sight to see, One of the other hi-lights of the school is the ability to watch your children dance, even if you are at home. Lisa sends out a link allowing one to watch their kids progress in the world of dance. Many times, I am watching my daughter from the waiting room, while my wife is viewing from work. Oh yeah, parents aren't allowed in the actual dance studio. You just wait in the comfortable lobby, and watch from there. I should also mention, if one day your little one has to miss a class, they can easily make it up another day They also sell dance shoes, and clothes, in case your tiny dancer needs it. Everything one might need is right there at the studio. I know this school takes older kids too. So don't worry about that. They also put on recitals throughout the year for the bigger kids. Can't wait for my Callie to be in one herself. I usually try to put price of classes, but since my daughter is still in the toddler stage, I can tell you that it is more than reasonable. During the pandemic, masks were required for every person who was in the building. As of right now, masks are optional. I can guarantee, if things change, Lisa will be at the forefront, and mask wearing will be mandatory once again. What I tell people looking for a dance class, is to call West Valley Dance Academy, and request an intro class, so you can see if it works for you and your family. That's what we did, and have not looked back

Been coming here for 10 years and my family have all taken lessons from many of the dance teachers…read more Highly recommend sending your kids here!

We've been with Elite since 2016 between my two daughters, who both started dancing at age 3. Our…read moreoldest has moved on to other interests, but our 7-year-old continues with ballet and loves it. I've watched Elite grow from a smaller studio into the powerhouse it is today. Elite is an excellent dance studio, from day one through their very polished recitals. It's important to note that this is not a cutesy/playtime type of studio. Dance is a discipline, and so dress code and presentation are taken seriously. For first-timers, that might feel a little intimidating, but there's a reason behind it. Hair and makeup need to be spot-on for recitals, because there's always a chance your cute 3 or 4-year-old might get on stage and just stand there! But guess what? They'll look fantastic doing it. And then, year after year, you'll see their confidence and ability grow. As a parent, you will need to stay on top of recital packets to know who/what/where/when, and I find Elite to be very thorough in the material they send out, or if you simply call them ahead of time. Another perk.. they have a professional photographer who takes photos on stage and backstage at shows/recitals for FREE. As well as a videographer, which is very much appreciated. The owner, Toni, taught my oldest years ago and is fantastic, both as a teacher and as a business owner. Neither of my girls have ever been on team, but both have always enjoyed their classes. The teachers are wonderful with age-appropriate instruction (shout out to Miss Princess with the littles) and technique. My 7-year-old only takes one ballet class currently, yet she could not be more excited to be performing in The Nutcracker for her second year in a row. Needless to say, we love Elite!

My daughter dances for fitness and as a hobby but this studio trains serious dancers, little ones who come for their first dance class, and everything in between. The studio has ample parking. Nice people run the studio and we are happy that we found it!

The people here are the real deal, good people…read more My son is a ballet dancer. We lived in Simi Valley for many years and my son danced with a studio that was a competition studio. They have all genres of dance, but it always felt they prioritized the competition dance team, which isn't our thing. As a result, when we moved to the San Fernando Valley, we decided to stick with a more traditional Ballet school academy environment. No competition team type places. We ended up in downtown LA. But during covid, we really had some challenges and my son wasn't able to get back in a studio for many many months. I found California Dance Academy on social media and saw that they were doing Nutcracker outside. I emailed them and ask if my son could take class with them for a while until our school opens again. They were dancing outside and following all covid precautions until case numbers came down and county restrictions allowed indoor classes again. They followed everything to a T and kept dancers safe. No cases were spread within the studio. Everyone we met here was fantastic. No drama. And truly solid classical ballet instruction. I'd have previously written this place off because we were looking to get away from competition environment, but California Dance Academy treats both classical ballet and competition as equally valuable. They develop strong dancers and train kids up in the area the kid wants to go. Their focus is art and solid instruction. My son's school downtown reopened and he was genuinely sad to leave California Dance Academy. But I have to write this review and just say that whether it is classic ballet or more commercial style dance you are looking for, this is a great school with great people. They are helpful, transparent, kind, and honest people.
